Spring? Don't Think So. . .

It's supposed to be spring here, but the temps are still ranging in the winter weather arena. The other night it got down to 32F degrees. I was so cold that I broke out the heating blanket on our bed. Got cold chills so bad that I couldn't stop shivering. Even snuggling up to the ever-warm hubby didn't help! By Tuesday night the weather is predicted to be down to 28degrees F. Brrrrrrr.

Moyie Springs mudbog occupied the hubby most of Saturday. He and ChaChi went up there & returned late. They carried spare parts. Also got to ride in a 4WD to climb a few hills at the site. $20 to get in and hubby had a pass that carried the number 2060!

On Sunday the puppies got me a very nice Mother's Day card; Got a brief phone call from the son & daughter; hubby got me two rocking chairs for the deck; along with a few beautiful hanging plants for the patio and an outdoor thermometer/clock. Dogs & hubby also sang "happy mother's day" to me.

We hung outside most of the day yesterday until a storm cloud came up and it got very cold. All the dogs had lots of fun wandering around & digging holes while we did various chores outside. I planted my new flowers, and after he was finished putting together the new rockers, Greg even managed a cat-nap in the sun! He also trimmed his beard, mustache & cut his hair on the deck. Looks much better now.

Before the storm came, we had a chance to wash all the dogs. Angus got a little cold chill and I had to cover her up with a blanket in the back room as she was shivering. She didn't like the blow dryer, so I thoroughly rubbed her down with a towel to make her feel better.

While the storm was raging outside & raindrops were beating down on the roof, we finished hubby's burritos for the week. He made 8 and has fixings to create about 6 more!

Monday is a rainy day and cold again. The landscapers were supposed to be here for the circle driveway, but I think they have postponed until it is sunny again.

I am going to make more Banana Nut Bread for the guys as they ate the other batch up already.

*LATER - The landscapers Dave & Jennifer did come today; they worked inbetween raindrops! The yard already looks much better. We have scheduled them to come every week.

Hubby stopped home early to have lunch - just popped out the banana nut bread; "it was delicious" he said. After a quick nap on the couch, he went down to the shop to work on welding the brackets for VZ digging.
